A Multivariate ANN-Wavelet Approach for Rainfall–Runoff Modeling

Nourani, Vahid; Komasi, Mehdi; Mano, Akira - In: Water Resources Management 23 (2009) 14, pp. 2877-2894

Without a doubt the first step in any water resources management is the rainfall–runoff modeling over the watershed. However considering high stochastic property of the process, many models are being still developed in order to define such a complex phenomenon in the field of hydrologic...

The Application of a Statistical Downscaling Process to Derive 21st Century River Flow Predictions Using a Global Climate Simulation

Werth, David; Chen, Kuo-Fu - In: Water Resources Management 29 (2015) 3, pp. 849-861

<Para ID="Par1">The ability of water managers to maintain adequate supplies in coming decades depends, in part, on future weather conditions, as climate change has the potential to alter river flows from their current values, possibly rendering them unable to meet demand. Reliable climate projections are...</para>

Efficient accommodation of local minima in watershed model calibration

Skahill, B. E.; Doherty, J. E. - 2006

The Gauss-Marquardt-Levenberg (GML) method of computer-based parameter estimation, in common with other gradient-based approaches, suffers from the drawback that it may become trapped in local objective function minima, and thus report optimized parameter values that are not, in fact, optimized...
